Beerus saw that Goku was still determined to go ahead with his plan despite his warnings, and he immediately flew into a rage. He raised his hand, palm facing Goku, and threatened, "Son Goku, you've been getting too cocky because I've been smiling at you all this time, forgetting your place. I'll give you one last warning."
"If you dare bring up the idea of holding a Universal Martial Arts Tournament again, I'll destroy you. I hope you won't provoke my patience."
"If you run away, I'll destroy Earth."
Beerus's face was stern, and his voice was cold as he looked at Goku. His palm was filled with destructive power, and if Goku made any sudden moves, Beerus would destroy him.
Goku looked at the stern and cold Beerus and finally put down the summoning device in his hand, agreeing to Beerus's request. "Alright, Lord Beerus, I won't insist anymore."
Just as Goku and Beerus were about to part ways, they were in a small space outside the twelve universes.
Two Zeno Kings were playing chess, with four guards standing by their side, and the Grand Priest was observing the game silently.
Suddenly, one of the Zeno Kings sighed, "So boring!"
The other Zeno King also sighed loudly, "Yes, so boring!"
The Zeno King on the left was playing with twelve universe models he had made as chess pieces and suddenly asked the Grand Priest beside him, "Grand Priest, how many universes do we have now?"
The Grand Priest was startled and then replied, "Your Majesty, we currently have twelve universes."
"Twelve universes, isn't that too many?" The Zeno King on the left spoke up.
"Yes, yes, twelve universes are indeed too many. Let's eliminate some of them," suggested the Zeno King on the right.
Then the Zeno King on the left asked the Grand Priest, "How strong are these twelve universes?"
The Grand Priest answered, "Your Majesties, currently, the first universe remains far ahead in strength, followed by the twelfth universe. As for the rest, there have been no changes in strength, and some universes have even dropped in their rankings."
After hearing the Grand Priest's introduction, the Zeno King on the right said, "If that's the case, those weak universes have no reason to exist. Let's eliminate them."
The Zeno King on the left also thought for a moment and said, "Then let's keep four universes, and eliminate the other eight weak universes."
The two Zeno Kings' decision shocked the four guards. They couldn't believe that the Zeno Kings would decide to eliminate eight universes after such a simple discussion.
The Grand Priest, seeing that the Zeno Kings had made up their minds, naturally wouldn't object. However, he also hoped that the Zeno Kings would give the Destroyers and Supreme Kais of those universes a chance to explain.
So the Grand Priest spoke up, "Alright, Your Majesties, since that's the case, let's gather all the Destroyers and Supreme Kais from every universe and give them a chance to prepare themselves."
After saying this, the Grand Priest took out his staff and sent a message to all the Angels, "The Zeno Kings summon all the Destroyers and Supreme Kais from every universe. Prepare yourselves, as he will summon you soon."
On the Destroyer Planet of the seventh universe, Beerus, who had just convinced Goku with his strength, had just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the Grand Priest's notification that the Zeno Kings were summoning all the Destroyers and Supreme Kais. Beerus immediately became flustered.
Beerus looked at Whis with a serious face and asked, "Whis, why do I have such an ominous feeling? When was the last time the Zeno Kings summoned everyone, and for what reason?"
Whis thought for a moment and replied, "It was probably about seven hundred years ago. It was because the Zeno Kings wanted to play a game and summoned everyone. I remember it was a game of hide-and-seek."
"Hide-and-seek? Isn't that a game for children?" Goku asked. "So, what happened?"
"Lord Beerus, when he arrived at the venue, he immediately found a place to sleep, making it impossible for everyone to find him. The Zeno Kings were very unhappy, almost to the point of destroying all the universes, haha..." Whis looked at Beerus with a smile.
John Doe spoke up at this moment, "You mean the Zeno Kings want to play a game, like the Universal Martial Arts Tournament they mentioned before?"
Beerus nodded in agreement with John Doe's words, "You make a lot of sense."
"Alright, John Doe, Goku, you two come with me to meet the Zeno Kings. You've both met them, and Goku even became friends with them. John Doe, you were even praised by the Zeno Kings."
"With you two there, even if the Zeno Kings want to do something bad, they might spare the seventh universe for your sake."
Hearing Beerus's words, John Doe was reluctant, considering the childlike nature of the Zeno Kings, who had the power to decide the fate of all universes. He really didn't want to meet them.
As John Doe was about to continue persuading Beerus, he suddenly seemed to realize something and immediately reached out and grabbed Goku and John Doe.
As the scenery flashed before John Doe, he immediately saw the two Zeno Kings sitting high on a platform.
As the Grand Priest summoned all the Destroyers and Supreme Kais, everyone immediately knelt on one knee and bowed to the Zeno Kings.
Goku happily waved to the two Zeno Kings, shouting, "Hey, Zeno!"
Goku's shout and greeting stunned everyone present, including the unprepared Destroyer Beerus and Supreme Kai Shin of the seventh universe.
"Zeno!" Hearing such a disrespectful address, a yellow mouse-like Destroyer shouted angrily, "Kid, who are you to be so disrespectful to the Zeno Kings? Do you want to die?"
At this moment, one of the Zeno Kings looked at the Destroyer coldly and asked, "Do you want to die? Do you have the right to speak here?"
The Destroyer was so scared that he quickly knelt again and begged the Zeno Kings for forgiveness.
The Zeno King looked at Goku again and asked, "Goku, why haven't you come to play with us lately?"
Goku replied, "I've been busy with household chores lately, and I just had some free time."
The Zeno King listened to Goku's words and nodded, "Alright, then stay after the meeting and play with us."
Goku nodded eagerly, planning to bring up the Universal Martial Arts Tournament to the Zeno Kings later.
